Well i agree they are disgusting in content, but I also believe they serve a dual purpose, to fund basil and teach the younger generations about the harmful effects of smoking.

Yeah it can. I went to my nurses office today cuz I fell in a bush (LOL), and I saw this add about stuff like that.
And drugs destroy bone marrow o-o Never would have though.

It's sad that without ads, the site wouldn't exist.

Unless you want to pay to use basil.

[quote=Feeling]I guess it's sort of good in the sense that less kids will decide to use tobacco products, but I agree, the ads sure are disgusting. ;_;[/quote]

A big part of basil smokes, so I vote they should keep it.
